we're not mad dude

you are

[remote kiln]

we're telling you, that you're missing your audience

[woven sonnet]

[remote kiln]

but you're taking this is as some personal vendetta

[fiery shoal]

wait since when has lmgs been bad in 2042?

[remote kiln]

the data is probably referencing 2023 id guess

[woven sonnet]

i didnt say bad I asked why i play bad with them

[chilly dove]

He's winning gunfights with ARs. That's not a bad thing. Not being able to win them with others doesn't mean someone is "terrible" etc. It just means he has a playstyle / performance preference

[fiery shoal]

the bot says they are bad

[woven sonnet]

it actually says its good for certain playstles

[willow sky]

god damn that was sick

[fiery shoal]

last i played lmgs were good in general

[woven sonnet]

this was the whole paragaph

lol

[chilly dove]

but yeah I guess I discovered another hater, welcome to the list!

[woven sonnet]

I only hate one thing

its stadium 24/7

[remote kiln]

yeah the data it's referencing from is 2022/23 that's why

[fiery shoal]

that list is bs.. pkp is not accurate.. thats for the avancys

[remote kiln]

that's before season 4

[woven sonnet]

yea

the linked tweets

xD

2022

[remote kiln]

[woven sonnet]

grok cooked

[fiery shoal]

but that enders quote shows they are good..

[woven sonnet]

mid tier AI

in testing

what can I say

[lyric glade]

I do like details

[remote kiln]

well nevermind lol

https://www.tomshardware.com/video-games/ea-is-looking-at-adding-in-game-ads-in-aaa-games-well-be-very-thoughtful-as-we-move-into-that-says-ceo

[lyric glade]

I did not realize my stupid question would cause such an argument

[chilly dove]

You're welcome. And again, I don't think you're bad.

[lyric glade]

they already have tried lol, look at the WWE game

[remote kiln]

tried and succeeded*

[chilly dove]

And don't be intimidated by haters

[remote kiln]

FIFA etc

no doubt the shooters are next in some form

[lyric glade]

i could see how they can work

like ads on billboards in a city map

[remote kiln]

I'm curious how the reception would be, probably differs on the brand

[fiery shoal]

people will complain for sure

thats just how gamers work

[remote kiln]

I imagine putting raytheon on a map billboard is going to get a different kind of opinion than coca cola

[fiery shoal]

gamers complaining about a 10 dollar price increase even though games have been 60 bucks for 2-3 decades, the price increase doesnt even account for inflation, let alone the cost of dev and marketting

[remote kiln]

it's kinda weird that, that got more traction than more significant ones like enforcement of regional pricing

a lot more impactful but barely a mention

[lyric glade]

the hatred for the change was more so the way several companies handled the change

[fiery shoal]

how.. they just plainly increased the price...

now some of those games were shit like that empty parkour magic game, but still

[lyric glade]

on console the newly priced games were entirely new games you had to buy a second time

[ebon pilot]

Wasn't the Polaris RZR in 2042 basically an ad?

[lyric glade]

if you bought 2042 for the xbox one, you’d have to buy it again for $70 to play the 128 player mode that came on series x

[remote kiln]

I don't know if you'd classify that as an ad as it was a partnership iirc between them, though that gray area gets murky

[lyric glade]

playstation demanded the $10 price difference as a separate dlc purchase if you bought one of said games for 60 before and wanted to play the ps5 native version

[chilly jacinth]

Can you even find that info ingame

That it's a partnership

[remote kiln]

don't think so

[ebon pilot]

i guess the RZR is a real vehicle used by multiple armies

[remote kiln]

this is more like, we're selling ad spaces in games for profit, basically just what FIFA does on steroids

[ebon pilot]

but the fact that it's literally just a Polaris RZR branded side-by-side makes me think it's some sort of partnership

[fiery shoal]

i mean.. thats not exactly ridiculous, nor is "making' someone buy the next gen console version again

[remote kiln]

https://blog.polarisbritain.com/2022/01/01/battlefield-2042-x-polaris-off-road/

Off-road meets on-screen gaming: Polaris recently announced a first-of-its-kind partnership with the latest Battlefield 2042 ™ video game from EA®, making it the official off-road vehicle partner of the platform.

Through the partnership, players can operate the Polaris Sportsman ATV within the gameplay, showcased in the trailer that fuses the virtual world of the game with real-world riding.

[fiery shoal]

this has kind of always been a thing

[ebon pilot]

the ATV is a polaris vehicle too???

[remote kiln]

yeah the partnership wasn't for one vehicle exclusively

I think there was brief mentions of there being more in the works at the time but nothing came of it

There's already been ads on billboards in this game and previous Battlefield games

[wide spear]

LF2 to squad up with. DM

[acoustic seal]

did this guy ever get an answer?

[patent pivot]

dont you guys feel like there is too much ticket?

both standard and 128

[acoustic seal]

LMGs are better than ARs in every category except sprint-to-fire time, there's a 99% chance he's running at people with an avancys or something and dying while waiting for the animation to finish

[kindred flint]

LMGs with out a single fire mode

[acoustic seal]

just click?

[kindred flint]

its not the same

[patent pivot]

anyone??

[acoustic seal]

i dont think ive ever looked at ticket count in this game

i look at the bars and i leave the game if there's a big difference in bar size

[kindred flint]

except for when theres wayyy too few like flashpoint launch count

[patent pivot]

for BT and rush

not cq

[acoustic seal]

yeah i don't play cq

[kindred flint]

ew who tf plays those trash modes

[patent pivot]

fucking 700 for 128

ludicrous

why not 400 or something

[kindred flint]

kill faster

[patent pivot]

fuck that

this drags on for too long

[acoustic seal]

probably so i can farm 100+ kill games

[patent pivot]

I can farm on redacted

give me Falck T1

[sturdy trout]

What is the best AR and what the best loadout for it

[dreamy topaz]

probably AK5C due to its versatility

can have AP underbarrel or laser, HP extended and subsonic ammo are both good and it even has the option to use T4 suppressor with subsonic for full stealth and no change to ttk below 75m

[sturdy trout]

Thanks

[dreamy topaz]

don't use a heavy suppressor with HP ammo though, it'll remove it's capability to 4-shot at close range

wrapped suppressor is always good

[white sparrow]

MTAR is the faster time to kill from what I seen

Am40 beats it close range up to 15 meters but MTAR is better mid range

[glacial quarry]

ak5c for everything but close range

still does well in close range due to its high ammo count

[reef cliff]

I have not seen people use svd, m39 ebr, dm7 (On higher level people) nvk shotgun, rpk lmg, m44.

[glacial quarry]

m39 is extremely strong

its just not widely known but its prob the strongest dmr

[reef cliff]

because g428 exist smh.

[glacial quarry]

pretty sure its better nwo

now

kills faster i believe

[reef cliff]

SVD needs buff tbh.

[glacial quarry]

m39 has like one of the lowest TTKs in the game and its up till like 40m, and 26 rounds i believe. for a 2 shot kill gun thats insane

thats like a 65 round mag for a 5 shot kill gun

yeah 200ms ttk. fastest in the game

g428 is also 200m but its only up till 20m instead of 40m

[reef cliff]

I don't know why they nerfed the g428 range and damage (for standard mag) EA/DIce biased on full auto guns.

[glacial quarry]

to be fair it needs a nerf

m39 also but no one uses it so it doesnt matter

[reef cliff]

They nerfed ar's and lmg's, they nerfed the auto pistol, they nerfed the g428. #Stop full auto mode gun hate.

[ebon pilot]

It's a two shot at basically every viable range

[reef cliff]

SVD recoil shake awful.

[glacial quarry]

svd would be good if its recoil wasnt so terrible

[reef cliff]

Don't get me started on stealth nerfs too like 1 less bullet for subsonic mag g428, etc.

Also the SVD feels like it jams sometimes or is it just me?

[glacial quarry]

accurate SVD depiction

[patent pivot]

do it

for the BF legacy loyalty

[reef cliff]

I'm sure everone ask's this question but why is dm7 never got buffs?

[ebon pilot]

Most of the default weapons didn't get buffed or debuffed

It was decent from the start

[dreamy topaz]

no idea why anyone would use dm7, it's probably the worst gun in the game

[frozen loom]

It's bad, but I wouldn't say the worst.

[patent pivot]

EBR user here

[steep tusk]

anyone know why my guns reset when i reinstalled the game

[hazy viper]

Is any of the game mode more suitable to farm xp gain and unlocks faster than the others?

[naive quiver]

Breakthrough

[uneven tusk]

what does it mean when a class is "Proficient" with a weapon category?

[gilded lotus]

you get bonuses

[pine roost]

Each class gets buffs with a specific weapon category, but don’t take that to mean you have to use them

[full burrow]

assault is just extra mags tho

[ionic gale]

which is the most relevant of these proficiencies

[spare quest]

XP farm redacted conquest, unlocks solo/coop

[hazy viper]

Absolutely horrible to play before lunch.
I have just played 2 games and ended up like KD 5:30 and hardly ever made it from spawn to an objective to defend it 😄

AIs is part of this game features

[uneven tusk]

what are good attachments for ARs and SMGs

[ionic gale]

Short Barrel/Wrapped on the muzzle Laser/Masterky on the underbarrel bipod or UBGL in the 2nd/3rd slot. These are basically the only relevant attachments this game has.

[uneven tusk]

aight thx

[ionic gale]

Never waste your time with brakes/comps or grips, likewise heavy suppressors are only beneficial on very few weapons with specific setups

[ionic gale]

you are very welcome

How are you supposed to survive longer than 30 seconds in the jet? I get targeted by other jets, AA missiles, wildcat literally the moment I get in the thing

I know it sounds weird at first but it's amazing on the ak5c

I used that setup until i got tier 1

[neon prairie]

Like again, I just spawned in a get and got targeted by a wildcat and a panther

[pine roost]

Don’t barge in the second you spawn in an attempt to get kills off the bat. You have to play it real passive given the range on the wildcat and kind of circle around the edge of the map, it’s usually fairly easy to spot where it is on the ground, so your best bet is to just avoid it. And if it’s following you are you circle around, you’ll have to break cover to then get it from a different position

hey is the balancing team looking into the SRAW? as an engineer main I was super excited to use it, but never even bothered to get the first mastery with it as it was flawed in about twenty different ways lol

[glacial quarry]

@untold flower

[remote kiln]

no, the games support is ending in 4 weeks

[delicate fable]

they could probably fix it between then if they havent already been cooking something up for the draugr / lmg update

would be tragic to have that neglected by support ending

[naive quiver]

after 4 weeks let AIs fight for themselves

[acoustic seal]

the close combat extended rate of fire bug is never getting fixed lmao

Auto kick medics that equip a sniper rifle

[vocal tusk]

because it doesnt exist. Both CC mags have the same ROF

Nor does the masterkey bug he reported there. Gets all his info from sorrow, some of which is wrong

[spare quest]

Which ones are wrong

[vocal tusk]

that the CC extended mag is bugged and that placing the masterkey in any slot but slot 1 gives it less ammo

Both are false claims

Which were false at the time he posted that video

#battlefield-2042 message

Would definitely be a shame

But then again I’ve been waiting 3 years for a fix for a certain issue, with no signs yet

But I would actually like the sraw to be fun before it’s done

[kindred flint]

I was just about to say and new balanced lmg about to drop

[untold flower]

@glacial quarry mckay balancing

LOL

i was playing rdr2 earlier

[kindred flint]

If that doesn't mean removing him...

[remote kiln]

if you can't balance it may aswell remove it entirely

Mackay changes for those who don't want to scroll

[deep pecan]

mackek netf

[dawn cedar]

woahhh Draugr has forward guns now??? i thought it was just gonna be hit and run

[acoustic seal]

destroying movement at the end of support? how very dice of them

[remote kiln]

Increased rudder responsiveness on 2042-era Jets which will lead to a more responsive yaw input.

[acoustic seal]

i mean mackay trait should've been nerfed but the chance passed like 3 years ago

[vocal tusk]

APS change makes sense. In normal gameplay, the Irish APS is never used for vehicle defense anyway, only used by campers.

[dawn cedar]

wildcats camping on a hill is vehicle defense

[vocal tusk]

"only used by campers"

[dawn cedar]

"never used for vehicle defense"

[next onyx]

HOLY.

[vocal tusk]

"In normal gameplay"

Are u delibrerately mis-reading

[chilly jacinth]

Mackay got smacked upside the head

[vocal tusk]

Good, next step remove grapple all together lol

[acoustic seal]

just like bf5 5.2, one last "fuck you" for the road

[pine roost]

:0
I really need to read through these. brb

[remote kiln]

Removed the Gunner HUD from side passengers of Condor and HIND, going forward only the nose gunner will benefit from this.

[chilly jacinth]

[dawn cedar]

Reduced range of attack helicopter thermal gunner from 600 to 450.

[ebon pilot]

So the shootdown sentinel will only destroy grenades? But not smokes. Or EMPs.

[remote kiln]

yes

[vocal tusk]

As it should have been always IMO

[chilly jacinth]

Does it still kill c5?

[vocal tusk]

It hasnt for a long time

[remote kiln]

trophy hasn't stopped C4 since season 5

[chilly jacinth]

It's been changed so much i can't remember

[dawn cedar]

woah, big tow buffs

[remote kiln]

using it with vehicles was always a problem it just became a massive problem when you have a unbreakable anti lock on gadget to combine it with

[pine roost]

Right, let’s give these a read

[spare quest]

Speed lowered from 120 to 50 amazing buff

[next onyx]

It's a weird change.

[chilly jacinth]

It lets you maneuver it better

[next onyx]

That's weird.

[dawn cedar]

and they also changed the turn angles on it

[spare quest]

rip am40

[next onyx]

I don't think that's a good change to be honest. I'm not really that mad over it anymore.

[pine roost]

Wait they want to slow down the game? Please don’t!

[next onyx]

I guess the one big thing to use it for now is its ultra fast reload.

Which granted.

Is really good.

[vocal tusk]

Im sure Enders will have a perfectly rational and reasonable reaction to this Mackay nerf

[chilly jacinth]

Hit one headshot and you won't notice the change

Which should be easy

[spare quest]

Every sweatlord will love this mackay nerf

[next onyx]

Mackay mains malding.

[spare quest]

i love it

[pine roost]

Would rather they just gave that 25% to everyone and make his different

[acoustic seal]

the passive is the only tangible nerf, the grapple is still going to function as normal but with random clunky frustrations

[next onyx]

Oh yeah what I love is that this FnB mode is lasting more than just Friday.

[vocal tusk]

The mine change for heavy armor is good too.

[remote kiln]

pretty sure Ender's wanted Mackay removed so this change he'll be happy with probably

[acoustic seal]

like when they increased the railgun charge to 1s but left the velocity in place

[vocal tusk]

All his gameplays are abusing Mackay, so hard to know.

Cant blame someone for using the tools given to them tho

¯_(ツ)_/¯

[pearl ridge]

Mackay never should’ve had nimble in the first place

[remote kiln]

he talked about Mackay before when dice mentioned the 360 spam problem, basically said you can't fix it unless Mackay is removed entirely

[pearl ridge]

The grapple alone is enough of a gimmick

[dire hawk]

W update, the mackay nerf is insane. I was definitely waiting for it

[vocal tusk]

No soldier should move or aim faster than any other

[next onyx]

I don't think nimble itself is bad it was just how it was done.

If we had bf5 lightened stock then sure.

Which was balanced around the individual gun.

[acoustic seal]

which is why they should increase the base ADS strafe speed to nimble and then remove passives entirely

[pine roost]

The jet changes could be fun though

[dire hawk]

Nimble was fine tbh, the grappling hook was always the problem.

[pine roost]

Been hoping for an adjustment to the yaw accel

[acoustic seal]

read the notes, the grapple still functions the same

[dire hawk]

I know, but it’s still a nerf nevertheless lol

[vocal tusk]

You can only use it every 25 seconds, instead fo 10. Thats an insane nerf

Movement speed change from nimble will also break muscle memory

[acoustic seal]

it doesnt fix the issue, it's just a random frustration

in a game full of random frustrations

[dire hawk]

Nimble change is pretty bad tho

[kindred flint]

Still not as good as removing him entirely but I'll take it

[dire hawk]

Never happy

[dawn cedar]

jet feels fine atm tho tbh yaw wise

[vocal tusk]

Less chances for Mackay players to jump in and out of trouble as easily.

So its a decent change

[remote kiln]

giving a character a passive which says you statistically win gun engagements more is always going to be a problem

[dire hawk]

Jets are the best feeling vehicles alongside helicopters

IMO

[vocal tusk]

Jets in 2042 feel terrible by default IMO.

[dire hawk]

Lightened stock was a better idea

[acoustic seal]

you don't understand the issue at hand and why mackay is complained about, he can still break map flow entirely even if it feels like shit to use

[pine roost]

The yaw accel was drastically nerfed with the pitch improvements a little while ago, this’ll hopefully just bring it back up to that

[dawn cedar]

i havnt noticed it playing rifle aim with jets

[dire hawk]

Okay sure keep complaining, it’s not like I made a video like a week ago explaining exactly why mackay is a problem but sure lol

[fossil lichen]

Hello! I'm new here. Is this server only dedicated to 2042 or do people here also play Battlefield 1?

#battlefield-legacy-titles for non 2042 games

[spare quest]

[dusty sparrow]

#battlefield-legacy-titles

[next onyx]

This is a good nerf for short barrel.

[dire hawk]

Wat

[fossil lichen]

Alright thanks.

[remote kiln]

the mine change in this patch is pretty significant

will go barely unmentioned but that's a big change to vehicle flow

[vocal tusk]

Its a big change...but so few people use mines...it will probably pass un-noticed

[pine roost]

Depends which one you played most before the update, since they just transferred the SU’s yaw to it, which was drastically slower than the f35’s.

Either way, we’ll be even better with this update

[remote kiln]

most likely yeah

[acoustic seal]

wish they would've blanket applied this to every short barrel, RPT is still going to laser beam people

[vocal tusk]

Has a much lower ROF tho, right. So it wasnt as much of an issue vs the LCMG

[acoustic seal]

not with CC ammo it doesn't

[kindred flint]

Short barrels just need to not exist, since dice doesn't understand how to balance them

[remote kiln]

well I mean if you want to end support may aswell do significant changes

for a final major patch this is like fine sorta

[acoustic seal]

short barrel + CC ammo + ADS accuracy grip + engineer trait lets you laser beam to like 120m with minimum effort

[vocal tusk]

I doubt this is the final patch

[remote kiln]

excluding* minor ones they said

[ancient peak]

Mackay hit with the nerf sledgehammer

Good

[dire hawk]

It’s not, they still have to balance the new weapon/bomber

[kindred flint]

Nah leave the lmg op

[remote kiln]

I was talking about major patches game wise

this is for sure, the final one for that

[dire hawk]

Yes probably

[lilac dust]

MacKay

This Season in general we are aiming to slightly slow down the pace of the game and the biggest offenders that can oftentimes feel like they are pushing the limits too much. We are starting with MacKay by making his gadget more defensive and strategic rather than having it as an aggressive enabler offensively.

To do that we are increasing the cooldown of the grapple from 11 seconds to 25 and we are also lowering the boost of his trait “Nimble” which grants a boost to movement speed while aiming down sights from 40% to 25%.

Additionally, in a future patch, we will be implementing a force reload animation when equipping the weapon to further emphasize the strategic use of the gadget.

[dire hawk]

Still waiting for the « improved map rotation » tho

[remote kiln]

need to wait till the next game lol

[dire hawk]

Why copy pasting ?

[lilac dust]

What a great time to nerf mackay to the ground

[lilac dust]

So I can say What a great time to nerf mackay to the ground

[vocal tusk]

Cos they cant post pictures lol

[lilac dust]

That too

[acoustic seal]

yeah man leave him busted for 3 years and then make some random frustrating changes that still leave him busted

[dire hawk]

Oh I haven’t noticed

[remote kiln]

there is no fix to Mackay that exists

the only fix is remove his abilities or remove him from the game

this is better than nothing

[vocal tusk]

Removing grapple hook and nimble

[lilac dust]

Not being able to earn picture posting priveledges is an oversight by either discord or the battlefield server owner. Whoever it is

[dire hawk]

Touch grass for goodness sake

[acoustic seal]

they half-did it for sundance grenade and boris turret, why not?

[spare quest]

you can but ok

[lilac dust]

How?

[dire hawk]

Yes it would be the best solution, just a bit late

[vocal tusk]

They want trusted people to be able to post pictures, and dont want random unknowns from posting gore/porn.
(Which would happen)

[remote kiln]

he's a main selling point for the game, removing a singular grenade is easier (a lot) than that

[spare quest]

!regular

!!regular

[tender pendant]

The Regular role is earned by users automatically who are active in chat and follow the server rules. With this role you can post/embed images, use some bot commands, and get a special color in chat.

[lilac dust]

Hence why I said "earn" not stroll in and get it in the first week

[vocal tusk]

You can earn it tho

Just no one knows how haha

[remote kiln]

mods do

[spare quest]

its a secret now

[lilac dust]

Yeah but that shit is rigged. You have to setup camp in the server and never stop talking here

[remote kiln]

nah

[spare quest]

cope lol

[lilac dust]

Well If I'm not a regular already then it's rigged

[remote kiln]

it's more than that, people have been talking here for eons and still haven't got it

I assume there's VC stuff but no idea

[dire hawk]

I had no idea you had 170k subs, why did you stop uploading ?

[vocal tusk]

YT is a waste of time, money making wise versus my other skills.

[spare quest]

poor lad blocked me

[dire hawk]

It doesn’t pay that badly, 2-3$ per 1000 views is alright if you add sponsor into that

[vocal tusk]

That is bad pay

[dire hawk]

I don’t know what are your other skills tho

[remote kiln]

CPM is nothing

for the amount of time and effort you put in for that it's a loss

[vocal tusk]

Coding, game design

[dire hawk]

Talking about RPM (income per thousands views)

I say RPM cuz I’m French

[pine roost]

That tank repair change will definitely be felt, although given the recent turret rotation buffs I imagine that’ll offset it

[kindred flint]

Sorry you were born with that disease

[vocal tusk]

I used to do millions of views each month, but barely make 2k EUR. Too much work in the niche I was in.

[dire hawk]

Do you remember your income per thousands ?

[remote kiln]

even if you're talking about that the distinction of time investment for content vs output is much higher than just talking about games

making a 30 minute script is a lot harder than talking about a update a game has

[vocal tusk]

No, I move away from YT and havent looked at studio in near 3 years. It was a better move than huffing hopium that the platform would get better

[dire hawk]

Yes that’s for sure, it’s a passion job. You don’t do it for money, you do it because you like doing it 🙂

[vocal tusk]

At a point, you have to stop doing things as I was (50/60 hours a week) as a passion, and realize it was just a waste of my life hehe

[dire hawk]

Studio is clearly a source of anxiety

[vocal tusk]

YT is just a bad platform.

Bad for creators, all but the 0.01%

[dire hawk]

You were clearly overworking yourself, burn out is the trap of any content creation unfortunately. But if you like doing it and don’t want it to be your job you can post sometimes, when you have a little bit of time. It’s what I think is the best, just being creative when you have an idea and time

But that’s a discussion for another day

[vocal tusk]

there is no other way to be a success on YT for an average channel/creator.

[remote kiln]

there is a big distinction between the type of content you and him do

[vocal tusk]

Its hard work and grift. If you drop off or take a break, it deliberately, by design of the platform takes months to get your traction back.

[remote kiln]

it's not an option just to post in your free time when you are making long form content like that

[pine roost]

Using your channel as a way to post clips that are too large to fit on discord is the way to go

[vocal tusk]

lol agree

😛

[pine roost]

All I ever do

[next onyx]

My channel is just climp dumps.

But I do it for fun.

clip

[pine roost]

Was contemplating making some videos for fun, but I wouldn’t have enough storage space 💀

[remote kiln]

that is the way to do it

[vocal tusk]

But yeah, my content was about up to date news. News gets old and people dont want to hear about old news. So content delay was not an option if growth was wanted

[dire hawk]

Yes, I know. Mine is way less time consuming (even if it’s still take a lot of time, work and effort to do)

[remote kiln]

it's not even the time investment, it's just a different target audience

[bitter mulch]

Which skill is good to have nowdays?

[pine roost]

God tier aim

[dire hawk]

Being good at everything

[remote kiln]

people watching his content expect a form of professionalism otherwise it's not seen as up to standard, with viewing games that isn't there, for well most creators

if you're someone like JF then yes

[hazy viper]

Salesforce developer, Back-end Microservices developer, Enterprise Architect

[dire hawk]

It’s a bit sad to see people begging for his return in the comment section

[delicate fable]

well pretty disappointed in the patch notes not even mentioning the completely useless SRAW

[chilly jacinth]

did you really expect it to get mentioned

[hard geyser]

What patch is going to be the last one?

[delicate fable]

well its been over a month since they added that hot garbage

[chilly jacinth]

the last patch will be the last patch

[bitter mulch]

but what if dont want to develope

[pine roost]

It takes like a good 2 months for something new to get mentioned in notes

[hard geyser]

So last patch isn't 7.2?

[remote kiln]

this is probably the last major patch, there will be minor ones after this but don't expect much

nothing like content etc

[hard geyser]

I don't

I just want to know that so I can theory the next bf lol

[dusty sparrow]

Gun and run

[hard geyser]

Hopefully we see something this summer

[bitter mulch]

doubt

In a year from now probably

[remote kiln]

there is no release this year lol

it will be the second half of 2025

[hard geyser]

Small tease not anything more then something just to talk about

I know man lol

[remote kiln]

so you're going to be waiting a while

[hard geyser]

Thanks

[bitter mulch]

tbf Tom leaker said on his last post the we should get some reveal in 2024

[next onyx]

Yeah I wouldn't believe Tom.

[bitter mulch]

he is the only one i would believe

haha

[dire hawk]

As major patches go, I think the 7.2 one is the last one

[hard geyser]

Games sometimes do a tease the year before.

[remote kiln]

it makes no sense they'd do a teaser this early

[hazy viper]

Toms, in general, tend to lie more than usual guys

[bitter mulch]

not really

[bitter mulch]

yeah, the could do a GTA haha

[vocal tusk]

BF will tease anything, and its shite community will over analyse it to bits to call it trash

[remote kiln]

no he was dead right about this game way before anyone else

[hard geyser]

Not lying there lol

[woven sonnet]

Much love to the devs for nerfing mackay again it was getting on my nerves how fast they move

[remote kiln]

he literally had internal artworks of maps

[woven sonnet]

impossible to hit

[pine roost]

It’s just self perpetuating hype

[remote kiln]

dude clearly has sources inside dice it's not up for debate

[slate jolt]

Golden skins.
Nice mmmm

[pine roost]

Definitely

[vocal tusk]

I would like if they released details on the game, instead of actual teases of visuals/maps.

[pine roost]

Although some people twisted his personal hopes and somehow assumed it was fact

[bitter mulch]

its kinda wierd to me like for BF everyone is like ooh dont pre order, bf2042 is bad....on the other side people buy COD every year even if its bad and noone says anything

[woven sonnet]

hopefully it's like hell let loose

[pine roost]

Like that one tweet with the Shanghai towers

[vocal tusk]

Like era, factions, will have a class system askin to X game.

[hard geyser]

Maybe they could start the lore over YouTube etc if there's no story mode

[vocal tusk]

they will be a single player

We know this for a fact

[remote kiln]

^

[bitter mulch]

it is, its confirmed

[hard geyser]

Oh I thought that got dropped

[woven sonnet]

cant wait for the single player experience

[remote kiln]

no lol it's been in development for a while

[vocal tusk]

Ridgeline got closed, but Criterion and Motive are making it now

[hard geyser]

Awesome then that's news. I thought when they closed we got ggd

That's pretty cool then

[bitter mulch]

Would be good for a BF if it had a very good campaing something like COD

to get people interested

[woven sonnet]

it would be soo cool if we had those raids

[hard geyser]

Yeah man for sure. The bfbc games were so funny

[woven sonnet]

from cod

and like story updates with each dlc

[pine roost]

What do you mean by raids?

[woven sonnet]

maybe a openworld

[bitter mulch]

Would be a dream that the make a BC reboot like Cod is doing with MW

[woven sonnet]

well the raids from mw2

thats what they are called

[hard geyser]

Eh IDK I rather them just make battlefield as destructive as possible. IDK much about cod tho I don't play it

[woven sonnet]

i dont want too much destruction

[hard geyser]

Maybe once we get a 3 🤣🤣

[woven sonnet]

sweats would break the map and it would just take away from immersion/fun

[next onyx]

Blasco on Stadium and a p90 is a whole lot of fun.

Goddamn

[remote kiln]

just stadium itself sucks lol

[bitter mulch]

I get it, but lets be honest COD ecosystem is really good, and they get content, alot of player. BF needs to learn alot

[next onyx]

Eh it's better than hourglass.

[remote kiln]

that's a low bar to go from

[bitter mulch]

its better then redacted

[remote kiln]

absolutely not lmao

[next onyx]

True but hey at least it isn't boring.

[woven sonnet]

so true

the way it plays

[next onyx]

Ehhh redacted was fun to learn.

[bitter mulch]

for me it is, redacted, reclaimed are two of the worst

[next onyx]

Cause the map was made from the ground up to be hte way it is.

Oh dude what

Reclaimed is amazing.

[remote kiln]

.. consider yourself in the bad opinion then

[hard geyser]

Yea but cod is more live service now then ever. After the last 2 games, I think they'll swap things up but hopefully it'll benefit us

[next onyx]

I'm not even joking around Reclaimed is genuinely a good map.

[woven sonnet]

i don’t get killed by good players because we the masses can move together more and better cover on stadium

[remote kiln]

stadium was ass when it came out and it's 0.2 better than it was back then

[woven sonnet]

i enjoy it very much

[bitter mulch]

yeah

[remote kiln]

just this playerbase smoking copium about a nonexistent nostalgia as per usual

[woven sonnet]

i like the skins in cod

they should add more skins next bf

collabs

[bitter mulch]

nooo

we dont want that

[woven sonnet]

why not they so cool

[bitter mulch]

teletubies?*

really*

[woven sonnet]

its the best part about live service games

i hope they add a super premium battlepass with all gold stuff

like cod does

[pine roost]

Which are…

[woven sonnet]

uh

like from destiny

or wow

raids

for camos

so cool

[pine roost]

Had no idea they had any of that

[woven sonnet]

yea its amazing

just like the campaign

I wouldnt mind bf focusing more on immersion of singleplayer like a true war feeling

with VR

[pine roost]

I honestly don’t really care what they choose

[woven sonnet]

Hmm yea I mean I think they gave up on pvp because its infested with tryhards

so no one can enjoy it

thats why they dont make many maps

and nerf the sweaty stuff

[pine roost]

They didn’t make many maps because they had to rework the game basically from the ground up

[woven sonnet]

yea but that didnt fix the main issue

the players abusing movement

and stuff

thats why stadium is so good

because there is no space for movement

cover

only

[chilly jacinth]

abusing movement

[pine roost]

I feel called out

No movement is no fun

[woven sonnet]

that bhopping and stuff

or slide cancle

its not immersive

we dont need it

bf3 didnt have it

[chilly jacinth]

thats not abuse

you definitely had bhopping in bf3

[pine roost]

Bf3 didn’t have it? You sure?

[woven sonnet]

well not many people did it

[pine roost]

The game with air strafe control

[woven sonnet]

it was more raw fighting

about aiming

[pine roost]

Without movement aiming is hardly required

[chilly jacinth]

limited but you definitely could

[pine roost]

One compliments the other

[woven sonnet]

eh its not reaslistic

[chilly jacinth]

bf4 is the next level of that

[woven sonnet]

or immersive

[pine roost]

Who cares

It’s fun

[woven sonnet]

thats why they nerf mackay

because he is to fast

[chilly jacinth]

bhopping and sliding isnt part of that nerf though

[woven sonnet]

well yes but in general the game is so fast its not immersive and bf1 had more immersion and was more fun

[pine roost]

Debatable

[woven sonnet]

its the same thing plaging the new cod's

the best cod had simple movement

[pine roost]

Most classic cods have air strafe and bhops, more so than the modern ones

[chilly jacinth]

movement isnt the issue in cod either

its the huge divide between controller and mkb input

[woven sonnet]

i just want to go back to more realistic times of gaming

you dont see a solider bhopping irl do you

[chilly jacinth]

i also dont see anyone get ressurected irl

but here we are

[remote kiln]

realistic times
bunny hopping being in 3 too

[reef cliff]

Bruh anti tank mines got nerfed again. #stop anti tank mine hate please.

[woven sonnet]

its also this snap aiming on pc

its the worst

its like aimbot

[remote kiln]

it's not

it is in cod and apex, not this game

[hazy viper]

Do console players or pc players dominate the game, or the respective platform is not relevant?

[remote kiln]

pc for sure

aim assist isn't console exclusive

you will get it on pc with a controller

[woven sonnet]

mouse and keyboards is just too strong

[wide shore]

I haven’t had much of an issue against PC players in this game

[chilly jacinth]

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CEljLxEJ2q0

[wide shore]

My overall K/D is roughly the same as it was in BF1 and BFV

[woven sonnet]

i dont mean this

i mean like the

aimbot switching

between players

[next onyx]

I finally have it.

Fucking

[pine roost]

Not snap assist?

[chilly jacinth]

so you mean actual aimbot?

which is literal cheating

[remote kiln]

kinda bizarre people are calling this AA in 2042 aimbot lol

this is like spoiled milk compared to other games

[acoustic seal]

snap aim assist and recoil reduction on controller are significantly present in the game but not like, cod/apex levels of cheats

[wide shore]

AA in this game still sucks. It’s not even as good as previous titles on console.

[woven sonnet]

no when people like switch target really quick

between players

it shouldnt be possible

there should be like

visual drag on the scope

[acoustic seal]

mouse input is sluggish and shitty compared to previous BFs so it's anybody's game 🤷‍♂️

[chilly jacinth]

?

[calm bison]

Alright I’m just gonna ask it here since everyone else is useless

[woven sonnet]

idk i seen enough clips that look like cheats basically

[wide shore]

Exactly. They accidentally made the perfect amount of shit for both sides. So it’s pretty balanced. Lol

[chilly jacinth]

you dont want people to be skilled or what

its what youre basically saying

[calm bison]

Can anyone explain why my BF1 glows so much in certain areas? I’m on Series X and all of my settings related to stuff like Chromatic Aberration, Lens Distortion, and Film Grain, are off

[woven sonnet]

well its not immersive

and you cant do it on roller

[chilly jacinth]

yes you can

[wide shore]

It’s a visual bug that is present for everyone playing BF1 on Series X/S

Happens inside the ballroom on ballroom blitz too

[woven sonnet]

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pfG7K44kfM0 like this?

[calm bison]

https://tenor.com/view/office-michael-scott-thank-you-gif-5278681

[woven sonnet]

i cant do it on my roller

and its immersion breaking they should add more then just visual recoil

[acoustic seal]

ah console issue, that was a problem in bf5 with a certain config but this was the first time i've seen it for bf1

[chilly jacinth]

of course you cant

[woven sonnet]

for that too

[chilly jacinth]

youre not as skilled

[pine roost]

Oooo does this scare you

[woven sonnet]

i think for future bfs we need to get rid of this

make it more

[pine roost]

Go watch Jordy

[woven sonnet]

fun

[pine roost]

[next onyx]

??? Wait you don't like people with good aim?

[chilly jacinth]

i think hes just trolling tbh

[acoustic seal]

he's fucking with you lol

[next onyx]

Yeah he is.

[chilly jacinth]

imma stop replying

[woven sonnet]

dice never listens to me

so maybe

reverse

works

[wide shore]

[chilly jacinth]

ffs

[woven sonnet]

maybe they finally fix mouse input if i say its op

[chilly jacinth]

i cant believe youve done this

[wide shore]

I’m dragging ass this season

[woven sonnet]

I am the worst nightmare of myself

[pine roost]

Thank goodness. If you were actually serious there I think I would have gone berserk

[chilly jacinth]

fucking mackgay

[kindred flint]

One that showers?

Source I didn't watch the clip

[woven sonnet]

yes

[chilly jacinth]

with his pp out

[next onyx]

P90 makes people mad on chaos.

[kindred flint]

Gamer moment

[wide shore]

Lol

[woven sonnet]

[next onyx]

I think they were partly messing around.

[wide shore]

They just expect them in Oceania servers

[next onyx]

But the lobby wasn't a fan of me.

[chilly jacinth]

one guy is telling the truth

[next onyx]

P90 just works to be honest.

[hazy viper]

2042 has matchmaking par excellence 😦

[woven sonnet]

they are nerfing the hipfire reset on the p90 right?

[woven sonnet]

only thing i play

[next onyx]

No?

[wide shore]

Glad to hear it’s actually worth using

[next onyx]

I'm just running the p90 because I like it.

Not because I want to be different.

[woven sonnet]

well they just increased time for a full reset by a bit

[next onyx]

Slightly.

[woven sonnet]

nerf is a nerf

pls dont touch my beloved mackay

I NEED THE STRAFE SPEED

[reef cliff]

I don't know why they need to nerf the pp-2000 and aks-74u tbh.

[woven sonnet]

pp 2000 is pretty good

i had some fun playing iot

[chilly jacinth]

hipfire is cheeks on both of them

[woven sonnet]

true

[next onyx]

Just use Zain.

Regen on kill is massive.

[woven sonnet]

true

but aggressive grappling hook is my life

[stone cradle]

omg so many mackay nerfs

[reef cliff]

Mackay needed nerfs

[stone cradle]

based dice/motive or whoever is still working on the game rn

[woven sonnet]

too strong

the way he spams explosives

and uh

yea idk he just quick and thats too strong ig

tbh most people dont even know how to utilize mackay really

[acoustic seal]

fast gameplay scares the 40yo dads who buy full battle pass skips

[woven sonnet]

like the avreg player

they just grapple to height

no horizontal movement

[next onyx]

I just got bored of using mackay to be honest.

[untold flower]

pelican will love this mckay nerf

[woven sonnet]

the strafe speed is just

guh

[chilly jacinth]

his real strength is strafing at a gorillion miles per hour

[next onyx]

@wide shore Not my best clip but a fun demonstration of its hipfire. Also we were talking about 3d printed parts of guns and I suggested a 1000MM barrel.

[woven sonnet]

idk ig i cant understand how people cant hit someone strafing

i lost the connection to casual gaming

[reef cliff]

Can we get a f for vhx high power ammo, AM40 Standard ammo, LCMG short barrel,

[stone cradle]

when will engineers get buff though

[next onyx]

It's the ADAD shit that gets really bad.

[wide shore]

Yeesh

[reef cliff]

which one?

[chilly jacinth]

they already did with the extra rocket

[next onyx]

The 1000MM barrel was in relation to adding a fishing attachment to your assault rifle.

[stone cradle]

russian man

[woven sonnet]

day 7 or sum of asking dice to add back redacted 24/7

i haven‘t had a balanced game on stadium the past 4 days one team always gets spawn trapped

[reef cliff]

||revert g428 past nerfs.||

Also I have not seen any dmr buffs this patch.

[chilly jacinth]

i think there were some visual recoil improvements

dunno if you could call that a buff though

[stone cradle]

no thanks

meadgrinder 24/7

[royal swan]

HOLY SHIT IRISH MAINS GOT FUCKED

[errant patio]

Why are they nerfing mackay

[royal swan]

Because he's a cunt of a specialist

[errant patio]

Ok but they've even gone after the passive

[royal swan]

Getting into angles that no one else has

[stone cradle]

because he ruined the flow of the game

Now they need to nerf squirrel woman

[acoustic seal]

just dice things, the hook and the ads move speed passive were always broken but they left it for 3 years because 🤷‍♂️

and then they totally half assed the grapple hook nerf

[arctic grove]

i've never played any battlefield games before. had a bit of fun with battlefield 2042 but still have the option to refund, i bought it for 7 euros. yall think i should keep it or refund

[chilly jacinth]

do whatever you want

[arctic grove]

bud

😭

[calm bison]

@wide shore

You weren’t kidding about ballroom blitz

Good lord

[wide shore]

Yep

[acoustic seal]

the game is mostly disappointing because it's such a downgrade from previous games, if you haven't touched previous games then you don't have that depressing comparison and get to Have Fun™️

[wide shore]

BF1 still the goat tho

[ebon pilot]

if you're having fun and want to keep playing keep it

[calm bison]

MY EYES

[stone cradle]

now it's accurate to how bright an actual ballroom would be inside

[errant patio]

mafia 3 lighting

[calm bison]

Is this what hell looks like?

[errant patio]

never seen it so bright before

[wide shore]

It’s a series x/s bug.

Something about the backwards compatible version

[stone cradle]

Backwards compat?

It's an xbox one title

[errant patio]

Yeah

[stone cradle]

Odd

I never had this bug on Series X

[calm bison]

It’s recent I think

[wide shore]

It’s not.

I’ve had it since I got my series x at launch

[stone cradle]

I mean the last time I played BF1 was like 6 months ago, but I never saw anything like that

[wide shore]

It’s only specific spots. Otherwise the game looks fine

[stone cradle]

wait maybe it's because fps boost is on

[chilly jacinth]

https://tenor.com/view/flashbang-gif-22572243

[stone cradle]

I'm pretty sure this has fps boost to 120

You can turn that off and try

[wide shore]

I don’t know if it does(?)

[chrome hazel]

https://tenor.com/view/cat-blind-flashbang-light-mode-gif-21281004

Solid

[stone cradle]

oh yeah it does

[wide shore]

Could be an HDR thing

[stone cradle]

Just checked again

FPS boost is also weird on gta 4

caused some weird graphical stuff on some missions, so you have to disable it sometimes

that and for the last mission because it's unbeatable if it's on with the bugged out QTE

[arctic stump]

What guns are best in assault class

[mystic cypress]

does anyone know of a mil-sim unit in BF2042?

[wide shore]

Assault rifles

[arctic stump]

No shit smart ass

[chilly jacinth]

why did you ask if you knew

[arctic stump]

I don’t know

I was asking for names

[calm bison]

Checked my compatibility settings

HDR and FPS boost is off

HDR isn’t even available for the game

@wide shore @stone cradle

[wide shore]

Huh

[spare quest]

James, Kevin, Trisha, Justus, George

[calm bison]

It’s weird

[wide shore]

Wasn’t trying to be a smartass. You genuinely get bonuses for using ARs as assault

[arctic stump]

What assault rifles are best

[stone cradle]

i have no idea then

[calm bison]

This may just be a technical issue on either DICE’s or Xbox’s side

[wide shore]

For me, GEW is the goat.

[dusty sparrow]

Heaven i think you mean?

[arctic stump]

Is rm68 good

[dusty sparrow]

Yes

[wide shore]

Yeah. Good for longer ranges

[arctic stump]

Ok

[drowsy shuttle]

they nerfed mackay wow lol

well, assuming the nerf will actually work properly

cause we never know

[wide shore]

About time

[drowsy shuttle]

i think it was fine, and i rarely play with mackay nowadays.. i think zain is more OP

lol

[wide shore]

I don’t use him either. Never have really. I use Falck or Crawford. That’s literally it

But MacKay having a 40% ADS speed buff was quite drastic

[drowsy shuttle]

yeah the trait i kinda understand... but the grapple.. meh

[fiery shoal]

that cd is a bit long, but the ads speed nerf completely justifiable

[wide shore]

I think they’re finally realizing how much of a negative impact his grappling hook has had on map flow

[drowsy shuttle]

if there was more seasons, i believe by the 10th season they would remove his trait or the grapple lol

[wide shore]

Jury’s not out yet

[stone cradle]

and also sundance's wingsuit

[drowsy shuttle]

i think the health boost on zain more op than the movement speed of mackay... i can go in a chain kills with throwing knifes using zain, cause even if they shoot me a bit, the kill will regenerate my health.. so i keep goin

not to mention the most cheesy gadget in the game.. the xm37 lol

[acoustic seal]

if they did they would've tried harder than a cooldown i'd think

[drowsy shuttle]

yeah they will never remove his grapple.. that would be basically them admiting was a mistake from the beginning

same for sundace's wingsuit

[acoustic seal]

they removed assault c4 specifically because of the wingsuit, that was huge

[drowsy shuttle]

All vehicles beside Bolte, EBLC-Ram, the upcoming Draugr and all ground transport vehicles will repair 25HP in 8.6 seconds, up from 5 seconds. This change is meant to emphasize the role of engineers

lol

[acoustic seal]

or nerfed it, dementia hittin hard idk

[drowsy shuttle]

emphasize the role of engineers?

drivers never stop when an engineer tries to repair their vehicle... can't blame them tho, cause they never know when an engie is coming to repair

a simple "incoming repairs" or something like that just like we can do with medics to revive would solve the problem

[wide shore]

Can't blame em tho, since at least BF4 they've slowly been shifting engineer from "repairing and destroying vehicles" to just "destroyer of vehicles"

[drowsy shuttle]

lol

[spare quest]

nobody wants to be repaired anyways, 99% of all vehicle drivers just drive away if you try to repair them

[wide shore]

Cause they don’t have to be

Instant repair and auto repair have made repair tools kinda redundant

Only vehicles really benefiting from the tool is helicopters

[drowsy shuttle]

thats what im saying... engies have no way to warn them they are coming to repair... just like medics can warn a downed player they are coming to revive...

[spare quest]

cooldowns exist

[wide shore]

Yes. But the point still remains. Wait long enough and your tank will repair itself

No repair tool needed

It’s quicker for sure.

[ebon pilot]

i sure do love waiting for 2 minutes to heal

[spare quest]

have fun waiting while air vehicles are attacking you

Just shoot the heli down. Ez

I’m not saying the repair tool is useless. But it’s certainly lost its limelight over the years

[kindred flint]

They need to remove those features from vehicles to bring back so gameplay balance

[wide shore]

I mean, tbh. Yeah

[kindred flint]

Ft17s just running through Sinai town only to auto repair by holding x was so lame

[wide shore]

4’s system was fine. Can’t auto heal damage past 50%.

But I don’t think you should ever be able to repair your tank from the inside.

Lowers the impact engineers have in game

Same goes for air vehicles.

Jets maybe. Helis would be a lot less obnoxious if they had to go repair.

[topaz field]

Ive been begging since October 2022 to nerf mackay speed holy crap man what took so long

[ebon pilot]

they forgot

[kindred flint]

That's what happens when you don't play your own game

Or you're the Mackay main

[spare quest]

None of them do

[kindred flint]

At least one did

Since that's the only explanation for rm68

[acoustic seal]

my guess is nobody thought it was a problem until it was paired up with the smg speed multiplier

mackay trait should be the default ADS movespeed but that would be unfair to shitters i guess

oh wait they WANT to slow the game down for some reason

because the huge open maps didn't do enough on their own

[patent path]

Zain will be my best friend starting 1st June

[acoustic seal]

oh god i didn't scroll down all the way in these notes

"In a future update, we will be introducing a reload animation every time this Specialist Gadget is equipped" referring to mackay grapple

completely braindead

[next onyx]

Why specifically from then?

[patent path]

Mackay nerfed

[next onyx]

Patch is this Tuesday.

[patent path]

oh

[next onyx]

Play zain now.

[patent path]

Zain is my best friend next Tuesday

[acoustic seal]

idk how they consistently pick the worst and most wrong ways to balance shit but they do

needs to be studied

[next onyx]

Try zain with claymores cats.

Getting that random kill and having your health kick start feels great.

[pine roost]

Tanking will definitely be a lot more drawn out now

[patent path]

lmao

rng health regen

that's funny

[pine roost]

For fnb?

[next onyx]

Nah to the claymore comment.

It's funny when it happens.

[pine roost]

Fair

[arctic grove]

[ebon pilot]

walking around
cocaine suddenly injected straight into my bloodstream
yup someone must've hit my claymore

[zinc hare]

Props for Killy_the_bid for always having a bf1942 portal experience running

[royal swan]

Bruh I have to get ribbons to get the bomber and lmg

LAZY DEV AT IT AGAIN

[dense nexus]

as planes with rockets were cancer in bfv that helis are cancerous in this game

[topaz field]

welll from I played the game since early access he didnt fit into 2042 ...If you played on old gen (ps4) his movement basically feels like he's on roller blading just glides everywhere . II just didnt see why he's allowed to move like that compared to other characters he like neo from the matrix dodging bullets glad he's finally getting addressed tho

Hopefully next game these sort of changes are addressed early in the game life cycle

[acoustic seal]

the problem was never that he could move fast, the problem is that only HE got to move fast AND ignore the map design entirely while doing it

[topaz field]

of yeah for sure def agree

[ebon pilot]

and long ago you could ignore map design AND make unreachable spawn beacons

[topaz field]

folks would tell me imma hater, i need to get good blah blah but ran around with mackay with body armor plates lol

The next changes I would love is to remove or nerf the hell out of the armor plates. Angel loadout crate remove the call in system for that its useless people jsut die , and 70% of the player base dont know how to use it

[hazy viper]

I've been using the IBA plate, but cannot say it helps?

[acoustic seal]

armor isn't even in the top 50 things wrong with this game tbh

LOL

...he's camping by the Mastercard billboard! 😄

[topaz abyss]

games will soon have Ad-blocker plugins

[mental delta]

Seems like it's joeover

[mental delta]

Premium subscription to delete adds

[topaz field]

well for me its annoying cuz when at times you have only 10 rounds left in your mag you encounter a enemy around the corner your dead all cuz he has body armor. Def bigger issues at hand

[topaz abyss]

imagine that though playing a game about to kill some one then an ad pops up

Guranteed there will be a lot of broken consoles and pcs out there xD

[mental delta]

That would truly be one of those "only in BF" moments

People would break the shit out of their keyboard

[torpid wadi]

Mfw I have to watch an ad before I can respawn

[topaz abyss]

I would honestly find the person who insisted including ads with my broken keyboard in hand... you might know what would happen next xD

[torpid wadi]

We’d have names and addresses by sundown

[mental delta]

About to get a half-dozen federal crime charges upon you but it's gonna be worth it

[topaz abyss]

Worth it for the BF community

[mental delta]

Ho boyyyyyy EA employees locations would be fusing all over the web that would truly be like 70s communists hunt

[topaz abyss]

"guy knocks out EA who introduced ads to the game with a semi now broken keyboard" XDDD
